How does this product compare to high impact ABS plastic? I need a tough impact resistant part that can stand being dropped without breaking. The piece uses about 200ml of plastic it's approx. size is 6"L X 2.5" H X 1.5" W Has anyone tested its hammer toughness or tossed a chunk at the ground?

The material is robust and in a block will more than likely not chip, break, or crack in the size you mention unless you have fine detail, clips, thin edges, or any other exposed thin section in which a direct impact would apply all the force to and probably break or snap it off.
With the dimensions you gave in the video, you should have any problem taking a hammer to ... once again as long as there is not any fine detail that would take the direct hit from head of the hammer.

I have used the 80D in a slightly smaller piece, approximately 3"H x 1.5"W x 1.2"D and it is very tough. I have not thrown it onto the cement floor of the shop but I wouldn't hesitate to do so. I'm sure it could withstand the impact. My estimate is that it is tougher than ABS.
